Highlights

Lisbon District - The trip heads straight to Coimbra, a historic city that hosts the Portugal dos Pequenitos Park. You can expect a comfortable highway journey of about two hours with one or two rest stops.
Portugal dos Pequenitos - Known as Portugal’s first theme park, Portugal dos Pequenitos has been enchanting generations for over 80 years. It’s rare to find a child in Portugal who hasn’t visited at least once. The park offers both entertainment and education, showcasing Portugal’s architectural heritage with scaled-down replicas of its various regional styles and famous monuments.
Imagine the joy on their faces as they run between the tiny houses, monuments, towers, castles, and gardens, exploring these child-sized replicas. You’ll likely take dozens of photos, as each new discovery seems more charming than the last.
And of course, the children will invite you to join them in the attractions, which might be a bit challenging for you but will surely bring genuine laughter to them.
Coimbra - (OPTIONAL) It’s time for lunch. Although not included in the tour program, we’ve allocated time for it. We’ll finalize these details once you’ve booked the tour.
Lourinha - Next, we head to Lourinhã for the Dinosaur Park. Expect a comfortable highway journey of about an hour and a half, with one or two rest stops.
Dino Parque - Upon arrival, excitement builds as a gigantic dinosaur greets you. The park spans over 10 hectares and is the largest open-air museum in Portugal. There are 6 trails to explore, each representing significant epochs in Earth’s history: the Paleozoic, Triassic, Jurassic, Cretaceous, Cenozoic, and Sea Monsters.
Don’t miss the Activities Hall, where children can engage in activities and experience being a palaeontologist for a day.
In addition to the outdoor trails and activities area, the central building houses the Lourinhã Museum’s exhibition, featuring a fantastic palaeontological collection. You can also watch real-time fossil preparation in the laboratory. There’s so much to see and do, ensuring endless fun.
Lourinha - It’s time to head back to Lisbon, but if you wish to continue exploring the region, let us know. We have some incredible off-the-map spots we’d love to show you. By the way, did you know that Lourinhã is where a nest with over 100 dinosaur eggs was discovered? It’s also where the largest Jurassic dinosaur was found, and the region holds the record for the most Jurassic fossils discovered worldwide. These and many other fascinating facts await you.
In spring and summer, you can even end the day at the beach, building sandcastles and enjoying a beautiful sunset. The kids will love it, and some of Portugal’s most stunning beaches are right next to the Dinosaur Park.
Lisbon District - Returning to the Lisbon area involves a short highway trip of about an hour. The entire journey takes between 8 and 10 hours, depending on your visit duration and lunch plans. For transparency, we inform you that in addition to the 4 hours allocated for the attractions, the remaining 4 to 6 hours cover: 4 hours of total travel time and 2 hours for optional activities.
